I had neither money of my own nor even a bank account. I rang Javed and asked him how much it would cost me to go on the tour; he replied deadpan: "100,000 rupees." My heart sank. 'Javed bhai , my dad would never give me that amount of money,' I said gloomily. 'I'm sorry. I won't be able to come.' Javed burst out laughing. 'You idiot!' he said. 'You don't have to pay; you get paid.' I couldn't believe it. 'I get paid ?' I said. 'To play for Pakistan? Unbelievable!"-Wasim Akram, Sultan: A Memoir
